Uh, Duh... almost forgot this one..., sort of became partial to this car, after learning first hand what its like to drive something well beyond ones skill level. True 675hp, just under 1900lbs, as low as a go-kart, and drives like it. My Cobra felt like a joke after this. Intimidating looking, and very intimidating to drive. Rich, sir, I will never forget - still intimidated! Unreal.

Have to agree with black being the most intimidating color.
After all, Darth Vader did not wear red or blue.

I do like the two polished Kirkham Cobra pics the best. I think the pose of Brent's car looks the most intimidating, at least until his MK IV is finished that is.

Even more intimidating
Just dug up this old photo from the archives...
To many, what was even more intimidating and impressive was to see how those younger boys from Kirkham DROVE a few of their cars including this former SEMA show car 13+ hours all the way to the Cobra Bash in 2006, ears still ringing, cleaned it up, and we put it right in the lobby of the resort casino.

So long ago... Both cars got crashed since. Mine was crashed and fixed by it's current (?) owner. The CCX might be redone by it's new owner. Both look pretty good in the picture, sort of like the "babe" on the end of the bar at closing time.

Seeing that photo, for whatever reason thinking back and having a weird thing about numbers... is that ERA #50 ???
And if so, what size front/rear wheels and tires are those?
